* So Starlight, already (somehow) powerful enough to match an Alicorn, can even shield herself from the freaking '''''Elements of Harmony''''' -- i.e., the top dogs on the SuperWeight scale?

* So if Discord was actually a NobleDemon who was unwilling to cause serious harm, what could he have done that was bad enough to warrant [[TakenForGranite petrifying him]]? Even if it was due to blaming him for Cosmos' actions, why wait as long as [[https://derpibooru.org/2027857 the comic implies]] as opposed to immediately afterward? (I don't buy the "Discord was lying" theory as the current mess was caused by his hiding the truth and AesopAmnesia in the middle of the Aesop is as contrived, plus why lie if he had already beeb forgiven for such? And why wouldn't the comic show if this was the case?)

Added DiffLines:

** The Elements are like the [[DispelMagic Star Beam]] from ''VideoGame/PaperMario64'', they negate dark/corruptive magic from otherwise invincibly powerful foes and the stories revolve around finding/using them, but [[CripplingOverspecialization they have no power/utility outside that narrow, but impressive, function]] as far as we've seen. The Star Beam was temporarily negated by a comparatively mundane power boost, and Starlight was the only character who tried countering it with a mundane shield spell. In short, we fans incorrectly, but understandably, assumed they were omnipotent forces of good when in reality they were merely powerful yet fallible tools.
* Season 7, which the very next comics tie into, revealed the Elements were grown by one who also had and overly orderly mindset. And it took until Season 8 for the source of the Element to gain sapience which would let it let it tell right from wrong.

** The last two panels suggest he allowed himself to be petrified out of guilt ([[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E2PrincessTwilightSparklePart2 which he had planned on being temporary]]), so maybe hid did something to provoke this.

* Why did they continue to frame Sunset as Anon-a-Miss after achieving their original goal? They say if was because others students were asking for more, but why do it? If it was to be popular with them, the whole point of Anon-a-Miss was it was making who the students thought it was (Sunset) the opposite of popular, while they got none of the "popularity". So why continue as long as they did?

* If they retrieved the Elements of Harmony from the Tree of Harmony, why didn't they do so when Discord was teamed up with Tirek? That seems as much a GodzillaThreshold.
